Chapter 1432 There's a monster!
Naturally, they wouldn't believe Qin Yu's previous nonsense about dividing the immortal treasure equally.
Immortal treasures are incredibly precious; there are only a handful in the entire Spirit Realm. Even the Inheritance Pagoda here has at most two or three immortal treasures, but there are nearly a hundred people here. How could they possibly share them equally?
It seems that another fierce battle will ensue, with everyone relying on their own abilities to seize the celestial treasures, and whoever manages to grab them will keep them.
Of course, those who dare to come here alone are all warlike cultivators who are extremely confident in their own strength. They have experienced countless battles for treasures throughout their cultivation, and are already used to this kind of situation.
Although they were wary, they did not back down. Instead, they secretly prepared their own methods, looking for weaknesses in the formation and leaving themselves a backup plan so that they would have a chance to counterattack when things turned sour later.
For a time, everyone had different thoughts. On the surface, they flattered each other to maintain harmony, but in reality, undercurrents were surging, and each person was making their own calculations, ready to seize the treasure and make a quick getaway at any time.
Just then, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the courtyard gate, followed by someone shouting:
"Halt! This place is occupied by human cultivators. What are you demon cultivators doing here? Retreat at once!"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the courtyard froze, and solemn gazes were cast toward the courtyard gate.
Through the array barrier at the courtyard gate, everyone could see that more than a dozen demon cultivators of different appearances were approaching from outside the courtyard, and even more demon cultivators were rapidly approaching afterward.
They were densely packed together, one after another. Judging by their numbers, there were probably no fewer than eighty!
At the same level, demon cultivators are already a cut above humans, and now that the numbers of both sides are roughly equal, the threat has increased several times over.
Moreover, besides the eighty demon cultivators, everyone clearly sensed that there were several more terrifying demonic energies lurking in the shadows behind the demon horde.
The group of demon cultivators stopped outside the courtyard, facing off against the human race.
A moment later, a leopard demon sneered at the courtyard gate, exhaled two puffs of white breath from its nostrils, shook its enormous head, and retreated to the side.
As it moved, the other demon cultivators took turns stepping back, revealing a passage several feet wide through the demon horde.
At the end of the passage, two demon cultivators with astonishing demonic aura stood proudly. The leader was a leopard demon with dark fur, standing ten feet tall, while the other was a tall wolf demon with pure white fur.
The two demons walked side by side, their movements stirring up a black and white demonic aura that swept through the air. Their bodies exuded a terrifying murderous aura, with a faint red glow and a strong smell of blood.
The two demons walked slowly through the passage, and wherever they passed, many demon cultivators bowed their heads in utmost respect.
The many cultivators in the courtyard also subconsciously held their breath, staring intently at the two great demons with heavy hearts. They quietly reached out and covered their weapons, their five fingers constantly clenching and unclenching, and beads of sweat were already seeping from their palms.
Although there was a protective barrier at the gate, in front of such a powerful demon, those layers of barriers were probably no different from tattered cloth, offering absolutely no sense of security.
Just then, two powerful demons stopped outside the courtyard gate. Their yellowish pupils swept over the courtyard, over Qin Yu and the other two, and finally landed on the tall tower.
"Why are so many people gathered here? Is there treasure in this tower?"
The black panther's voice was utterly indifferent, as if the nearly one hundred cultivators in the courtyard were not living beings at all, but rather food waiting to be torn apart by them.
"Demon Lord, two Demon Lords..."
As the two demons approached, the faces of everyone in the courtyard turned completely pale. Regardless of what they had been doing before, they all stopped what they were doing, gripped their magical weapons tightly, and nervously looked towards the courtyard gate.
Any great demon who can be called a demon lord is a renowned powerhouse in the second level. Not only are they of noble bloodline and terrifying strength, but they also possess high-level true spirit treasures. Their strength is several levels higher than that of Qin Yu and his companions.
Now that the two demon lords have arrived together, along with so many Nascent Soul demon cultivators, once the fighting starts, the human race's chances of winning will be less than 40%!
However, the arrival of these demons was also timely. It's hard to say whether they could withstand Qin Yu's high-level formations on their own.
However, if these demons are added, and even the two demon lords join forces, with so much power combined, even if Qin Yu's formation is strong, he certainly wouldn't dare to turn against them so easily.
For cultivators of average strength like them, the more chaotic the scene of the treasure hunt, the better.
Only when the scene is chaotic enough, with the experts tied up and unable to attend to the whole situation, can they have an opportunity to take advantage.
Everyone quickly figured everything out, and as they secretly plotted how to gain an advantage, they suddenly heard someone exclaim:
"Oh no! How did the demons know we were here? Who leaked the news?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the courtyard tensed up, quickly averting their gazes from outside the courtyard and looking at the person beside them with suspicion before swiftly creating distance.
There's a traitor? What happened? Someone deliberately lured them here! Could it be an ambush by the demon race?
Before anything even happened, the people in the courtyard had already begun to suspect each other. How could this continue?
Seeing this, Qin Yu's eyes darkened slightly. He exchanged glances with the two people beside him, and the three quickly reached a consensus. One of them then let out a cold snort:
"Nonsense! How dare you spout nonsense and disturb people's minds on the eve of battle? What are your true intentions?"
"If we're talking about traitors, I think you're the one who most resembles the one who disrupted morale!"
As he spoke, he first glanced at the broken primordial spirit, hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and appeared in front of the person who had spoken.
Before the other party could explain, he raised his hand, took out a bronze cauldron, and smashed it down on the man.
The bronze cauldron swelled in the wind, instantly growing to tens of feet in size, and crashed down with immense power, instantly immobilizing the man.
Seeing this, the surrounding cultivators quickly dodged aside. The man, startled, was also shocked and hurriedly drew his sword to block, while simultaneously explaining, "No..."
Boom-!
Before he could finish speaking, the bronze cauldron suddenly accelerated and crashed down.
With a deafening roar, the longsword twisted and flew away, smashing the man to the ground. His bones were broken, his limbs were mangled, and he coughed up blood and fainted.
Immediately afterwards, a platinum rune flew through the air, enveloping the man and sealing him into a sphere. Then it spun and flew back to Qin Yu's side.
He raised his hand and placed it aside, his gaze sweeping across the courtyard, taking in the expressions of everyone present, before slowly saying:
"Fellow Daoists, the traitor has been eliminated, but a formidable enemy is at hand. I urge you all to join forces to repel the demon race and share the immortal treasures!"
After these words were spoken, there was only silence in the courtyard.
But soon some people reacted and shouted in agreement, yelling to kill the demons while releasing their own aura to confront them.
The accusations of traitors and collaborators are nothing more than pretexts used to threaten them.
However, the demon race is indeed powerful right now, and there is no other way but to join forces to protect themselves. They can only wait for chaos to break out before they can seize the treasure.
With no other options, the group quickly made their stance clear, adopting a posture of fighting to the death against the demon race.
